Ep #40: The Shift Between Short-Term and Long-Term Health

Dr. Kashey looks at Dutch research on health decision-making. They asked some subjects to consider short versus long-term decision-making processes, specifically with regard to their health. These researchers called it the “Mental Simulation Model of Decision Making” and they looked at two experimental groups. Essentially every time we eat, we’ve made a series of decisions on what to eat and how it will make us feel. But if we came in with health at the forefront of our decision-making, as opposed to pleasure, we would choose more wisely.
